Abstract—Now a days pervious concrete is being used as an alternate material for pavements due to its benefits in
reducing the quantity of runoff water, recharging water Table and enhancing the pavement skid resistance during
rain. This paper encounters not only the pervious behavior but also introduces geopolymer as an alternate binding
material to Portland cement. Geopolymer binder is produced by a polymeric reaction of alkali liquids with silicon
and the aluminum oxides in source materials like fly ash and slag which has its application from fluid to dry
concrete like reinforced beams and masonry units. While making of pervious geopolymer concrete various types
and sizes of coarse aggregates, ratio of binder to aggregate and dosages of plasticizers are also studied and
mentioned. Despite its porosity and permeability behavior, other properties like workability, mechanical and
durability properties have been extensively studied.

minutes in a pan type mixer & incorporated Coarse
aggregate which is mixed for 4 more minutes. Then
addition of sodium silicate is carried out and the mix was
agitated for a minute. The prepared sample is then placed
in the cylindrical mould. In order to control the moisture
reduction the prepared sample is then wrapped in an thin
plastic sheet maintained at 250C for an hour.
